Rest in Peace: Bruce Lee, aged 32.

Fate of the movie: When Lee died of a cerebral edema in 1973, he'd only completed 30 minutes of fight scenes for the film. His schedule allowed a break to shoot Enter the Dragon, but he died before returning to Game of Death.

Director Robert Clouse took what footage he had and somehow cobbled together the 1978 release. Much of Lee's intended dramatic scenes were used with actors in dark glasses, shadows and even a cardboard cut-out at one point. Eerier still, a major part of the plot is an actor faking his death with an on-screen shooting, which is what killed Lee's son Brandon 20 years later.
